CHICAGO -- Matt Barkley had a quick chat with his old coach after picking up his first career victory. Gustav Forsling Jersey .It was a sweet moment for a veteran quarterback -- and not just because it came against Chip Kelly.Were on good terms, Barkley said. Im grateful for the fact that he brought me into this league. No hard feelings at all.Barkley shook off a slow start to throw for 192 yards, Jordan Howard ran for 117 yards and a career-high three touchdowns, and the Chicago Bears handed San Francisco its 11th straight loss, beating the 49ers 26-6 on a snowy Sunday.The 49ers (1-11) extended their franchise-record losing streak and set a club low with 6 yards net passing on a day when Colin Kaepernick got lifted for Blaine Gabbert.The Bears (3-9) finished with a season high in points and picked up a rare win in a matchup between two of the NFLs worst teams.Here are some things to know about the 49ers and Bears:CONFIDENT QB: Barkley has not played much in the NFL. But hes taking advantage of his opportunity with Jay Cutler out for the remainder of the season because of a shoulder injury and backup Brian Hoyer on injured reserve.Barkley led a late comeback that ultimately fell short in last weeks loss to Tennessee. He got off to a rough start in this one, going nearly the entire first half without a completion. But he adjusted his arm angle because of the conditions, led a touchdown drive near the end of the second quarter and finished 11 of 18 without an interception.I thought he improved, coach John Fox said.It was a decent showing by a quarterback who was drafted by Philadelphia in 2013 when Kelly was coaching the Eagles. Barkley wasnt a great fit for Kellys offense because he lacks mobility, and he wound up getting dealt to Arizona in 2015.Now, his confidence is soaring.Probably at an all-time high in this league, Barkley said. Just knowing that I can play, that we can make plays as an offense.QUARTERBACK CHANGE: The 49ers benched Kaepernick for Gabbert early in the fourth quarter. Whether that was a temporary switch or a more long-term move isnt clear.The 49ers play the New York Jets next week, and Kelly wasnt about to tip his hand.Kaepernick, meanwhile, said the switch caught him off guard.Its not my place to really argue on the sideline, said Kaepernick, who found out from quarterbacks coach Ryan Day. I want to make sure I do what I can to help this team win and that was the decision that was made so I am going to support my teammates.Kaepernick completed just 1 of 5 passes for 4 yards and was sacked five times. He also ran for 20 yards on six attempts before Gabbert replaced him in the fourth quarter.Gabbert was 4 of 10 for 35 yards and sacked for a safety near the end of the game.DRAFT BOARD: If there was one positive for the 49ers, its that they gave their odds of landing the No. 2 draft pick a boost. They also remain in the running for the No. 1 spot. Only the winless Browns have a worse record.STINGY DEFENSE: Despite a long line of injuries and inconsistent play, the Bears defense has ranked among the top half in the NFL all season. And against the struggling 49ers, that group was nothing short of dominant.The Bears got six sacks -- two each from Leonard Floyd and Akiem Hicks -- and gave up their lowest point total since a 41-3 romp over Jacksonville on Oct. 7, 2012.RUNNING WITH IT: Howard continues to impress as a rookie.The fifth-round draft pick out of Indiana has five 100-yard games and his three rushing TDs tied for the second most by a Bears rookie in a game. Willie Galimore (1957) and Rashaan Salaam (1995) also did it. The only Bears rookie to rush for more in a game was Hall of Famer Gale Sayers in 1965.Howard, who came in with two rushing touchdowns, scored on a 1-yard run near the end of the first half. He added a 2-yard touchdown on the opening drive of the third and a 5-yard run midway through the quarter.---For more NFL coverage: http://www.pro32.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFL Steve Larmer Jersey . William Carrier opened the scoring for Cape Breton (6-4-2), but Andrew Ryan tied the game and Brent Andrews put the Mooseheads (8-6-0) in front for good with a short-handed goal at 13:49 of the second period. CM Punk Jersey . The Dane followed up his first European Tour title last weekend with eight birdies and just a single dropped shot on Thursday for a one-stroke advantage over South Africas Allan Versfeld and Portugals Ricardo Santos. http://www.blackhawksauthority.com/authentic-glenn-hall-blackhawks-jersey/ . I cant pinpoint a date, but I do remember a player from my youth. Brian Downing was with the Chicago White Sox at a time when I listened to every game I possibly could on the radio. That particular season the late great Harry Caray was calling the White Sox games. RIO DE JANEIRO - In setting alone, the venue where Olympic rowers and canoe sprinters will battle for gold has to be one of the most remarkable open-air sporting theatres in the world.After winding down Avenue Niemeyer from the Olympic Park, catching glimpses of the Sugerloaf Mountain with one side of the road hugged by pristine beaches, you arrive at the lake. Boats are spread out over Lagoa Rodrigo des Freitas; athletes are getting their bearings on the water, navigating the intricacies, finding anything to improve their chances.?The statue of Cristo Redentor -- masked by cloud on Wednesday -- looms down over the start line. The high-wire camera is being put through its paces while the first thing medal-winning rowers will see when they turn around to hug their teammates at the finishing line will be the Olympic rings.It should be sporting nirvana. Yet the focus until now has been on the water itself rather than what will race through it. That continued in the brief press conference at the venue on Wednesday, with the immediate focus remaining on illness, water cleanliness and hygiene rather than medal chasing.The water has been a frequent theme of the build-up to the Games with the lagoon in the spotlight for the sky-high levels of human adenovirus. A recent study by Associated Press showed the start line of the rowing race carried a reading of 28,445,510 genome copies per litre, nearly 30,000 times more than a level deemed hazardous.Then there are the problems following high rainfall where sewerage overflow may spill into the lagoon, according to a 2015 (FISA) statement.It is far from ideal but there have been no grumbles from the Team GB camp. Theres nowhere we row thats totally perfect, said team rowing manager Sir David Tanner.Im on record when we came here 18 months ago as a team to say that we know that in some major weather events, the water quality can deteriorate but in its normal way, which it is now, we are as happy as can be about the water.We are taking normal precautions to keep everyone healthy so were using a lot of hand rub, which they use when they come off the water. So were being very careful. But as far as the quality of the water, we are content with it.Though they are content, the roweers precautions are wide-ranging. Jordan Oesterle Jersey. Ive been to my third Olympic Games now and lots of different regattas but Ive never seen precautions like this, not because theres a big threat but because its the Olympics and its important, said Pete Reed, a two-time gold medal winner in the coxless fours.On specifics, we got to our rooms on Friday and opened up our bathrooms -- there was soap, antibacterial soap, antiseptic soap that surgeons use to scrub up with and a Dettol spray and instructions of where to put that.Everyones carrying antibacterial hand rub with them and a lot of boats that I know, rather than putting their bottle in the bottom of the boats like we normally do, they are putting a special bottle with a cap and another cap on top and then in a bag. So were minimising any possible problems coming on.I know a few blokes arent taking bottles out on the water so theyre drinking before they row and then coming off and drinking again.Its all precautions, none of us are scared about that sort of thing -- were just sensible, proactive and were very professional. The right thing to do is minimise risks and were doing that well.Aside from the water, Team GB rowers are still coming to terms with Tuesdays setback of Graeme Thomas being ruled out due to illness. It was a call Thomas disagreed with but Tanner said it was a decision made with the athletes best interests at heart.He added: Hes beginning to reflect on that and perhaps think that we were being sensible but it might take a few weeks to get around to that.The rowing gets underway on Saturday. Up first for Team GB is Alan Campbell in the mens single skulls and on Sunday Helen Glover and Heather Stanning get their medal charge underway in the womens pair.Were ready, were excited and were looking forward to what this venue will bring, said Glover, who is targeting her second Olympic gold.Then come the other contenders as they look to chase the upper target of eight medals. They will do so in what Tanner says has to be the best venue in Rio. The Lagoa, I hope, will be the look of the Games. For good reasons, rather than ill.
